I just got back from my 3rd eye exam after becoming pregnant with my firstborn (he was born Dec. 2008). And each time, my prescription has made improvements. This last exam had my left eye go from a -4.00 to a -3.25! What.
Has anyone else ever experienced vision improvements after having children? I hope this trend continues for me!
My vision has...improved??!

I wore glasses before I had kids, not a very strong prescription but I'd get headaches with up-close work. When I was pregnant with my first, I found I'd have worse headaches with my glasses than without. I haven't worn them since, and it's been nearly 10 years. I had an eye exam a couple months ago, and they said I don't need anything. I knew being pregnant could change your prescription due to all the extra fluid and pressure, I didn't know it would be an improvement or that it would be permanent until it happened to me.
